This commit was manufactured by cvs2svn to create tag

'RELENG_2_2_1_RELEASE'.

This commit was manufactured to restore the state of the 2.2.1-RELEASE image.
Releases prior to 5.3-RELEASE are omitting the secure/ and crypto/ subdirs.

Some months ago I accidently committed a change that allowed the

1997-03-07T06:23:00+00:00

2.2 version of adduser to accept user names longer than 8 characters.
Back this part of the change out.

corrupt master.passwd on failure.

ask for matching confirmation.  I'm sure there is a clever direct-from-perl
ioctl way of putting the terminal into noecho mode, but I don't feel like
learning perl so I just used system.  [yes, I'll put stty on the installation
boot floppy as necessary]

I couldn't make any sense of the sentence "Eval variables in this file." so I
left it alone.

also allow creation of new local group when NIS groups are used.
this can probably be done more elegantly, and needs more thought.
